Abu Dhabi's Ultimate Coastal & Sports Destination
Hudayriyat Island is one of Abu Dhabi's largest and most ambitious waterfront master developments, located just off the southwest coast of Abu Dhabi and connected to the mainland by the iconic Hudayriyat Bridge. The island was opened to the public in 2020, while the wider masterplan was officially revealed by Modon in 2023 as part of Abu Dhabi's long-term vision for creating a major destination focused on waterfront living, sports, leisure and outdoor experiences.
Spanning more than 51 million square metres, Hudayriyat Island is being developed as a complete lifestyle destination rather than simply a residential community. The masterplan combines residential neighbourhoods with beaches, parks, sports facilities, cycling and running tracks, waterfront destinations, hospitality, retail and entertainment.
- Active Outdoor Lifestyle: Home to Surf Abu Dhabi (world-leading artificial wave facility), Velodrome Abu Dhabi, Circuit X, and 220 km of cycle and jogging tracks.
- Vibrant Waterfront Living: Marsana promenade, Hudayriyat Beach, Bab Al Nojoum luxury glamping, coastal dining, cafés, and pristine seaside venues.
- Elevated Coastal Neighborhoods: Low-density master communities including Nawayef, Al Naseem, and Hudayriyat Golf Estates with rolling hills and panoramic sea views.
- Prime Abu Dhabi Connectivity: Direct bridge link to Al Bateen, Al Mushrif, and central Abu Dhabi in 10 to 15 minutes, with Abu Dhabi Airport only 25 minutes away.

How big is Hudayriyat Island?
Hudayriyat Island spans over 51 million square metres (over 12,600 acres)—equivalent to roughly the size of Manhattan Island.

Which beach in Dubai is best for free access?
In Dubai, popular free-access public beaches include Kite Beach, JBR Beach, and Sunset Beach (Umm Suqeim).
